About Mallaig


Mallaig is a port in Lochaber, on the west coast of the Highlands of Scotland. The local railway station, Mallaig, is the terminus of the West Highland railway line (Fort William & Mallaig branch), completed in 1901, and the town is linked to Fort William by the A830 road – the "Road to the Isles".
Mallaig is the main commercial fishing port on the West Coast of Scotland, and during the 1960s was the busiest herring port in Europe.[1] Mallaig prided itself at that time on its famous traditionally smoked kippers but today only one traditional smokehouse remains, Jaffy's and Sons.
Mallaig and the surrounding area is a popular area for holidays.
 
The Mallaig railway is used during the filming of the Harry Potter series of films, and the Hogwarts Express can often be seen in the summer during periods of filming. Many other local areas are used for location filming.
